EMERGENCY RALLY TO CONDEMN WAR WITH IRAN, GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE,
SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 2026 1:00 -2:00 PM, CORNER OF MAIN ST & ILLINOIS AVE, CARBONDALE
The United States and Israel have launched major military attacks on Iran. This is immoral and blatantly illegal.
Despite progress in talks with Iran, the America First Administration and the genocidal government in Israel have launched a brutal, destructive, destabilizing attack on Iran. Retaliation has begun and will only extend the devastation. This proves that we learned no lessons from Iraq or Afghanistan or Libya, etc. The only guarantee is that the suffering and death of the people of Iran will continue just as the suffering and death of the Palestinians continues.
No president has the authority to use military force against another nation. And no matter what the Trump administration claims, war will never lead to peace. It will cost thousands of lives. It will further destabilize the Middle East. And will it make all of us less safe.
The Peace Coalition of Southern Illinois is calling on all concerned citizens to join the weekly Rally for Peace in Gaza, corner of Main and Illinois Ave in Carbondale. JOIN US SUNDAY MARCH 1, 1PM AT TOWN SQUARE, CARBONDALE TO SAY “NO WAR WITH IRAN” “NO GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE”
